Evan’s been FIRED up to try Shou Sugi Ban (which is basically torching
wood to a charred surface) ever since he discovered it’s a thing. Also
Known as Yakisugi, the burnt wood becomes carbonized which makes it more
waterproof, resistant to insects, and it looks really cool... which is
our main reason!

If they didn’t carve as deep as they did, they could have used liming wax as an in-fill which would have made the CNC image stand out more.
